    sounds like he prefers to use something he knows.

    We will have to see what this guy has now before we make any comments about the exhaust as I am sure most of the aftermarket offerings would be worse than the OEM design.

    their really busy, as i said call around 6pm and they should answer, kat works full time this is her side job so sometimes i think they do miss messages and stuff, if you call out of hours she will most likely answer and give a quote for the tune depending on ecu and if it has been tuned by trent before.

    Sam, I can assure you Trent knows his stuff.

    I personally put him at the top of my list when it comes to tuning my engines and also my close friends engines. Having been to a fair few tuners I would only let two of them touch my engines and Trent at Status/Chequred tuning is usully my pick as he is much more willing to help/give advice then my other opton.

    They are'nt the best when it comes to phone communication though, which number are you trying to reach them on? Trent pretty much wont ever answer his mobile, its always best to call Cats mobile (0414 944 146).

    as Takai above said that's the factory engine for the imported ae86, and not overly powerfull either. It might be worth while changing your whole engine. I suggest you try my car and see what you think, I will send you a PM.
